The humble Petition of the Guardians of Camberwell, in the County of Surrey. Showeth—That the period of one year, for which your petitioners were elected to administer the New Poor Law, having now expired, they feel it due to the measure to state the result of their experience, and to pray your Right Honour able House accordingly. That the said law has been in operation in the extensive parish of Camberwell during the space of two years and a half ; that previous to that time a considerable number of able bodied poor were maintained out of the parish funds, they not caring to work, and the overseer having no power to withhold relief; that these persons having under the authority of the new law been refused their old allowances, betook themselves to their own resources, and are now, most of them, still in this parish, supporting themselves and their families by their own honest industry, and presenting the most marked contrast between what they used to be and what they are, both as to morals and to comfort. That in the two years preceding the introduction of the measure into the parish, 46 illegitimate children became chargeable ; in the two succeeding years 10. That through the facilities afforded by the new law for clas sifying the inmates of the workhouse, and separatieg the aged, who are past labour, from those who are able to contribiite towards their own maintenance, the comfort of the former, as ell as order among all, are more effectually provided for. It is true, in the general classification which includes the sexes, husband and wife are kept apart ; but this is no new feature in the present law, it having been 4s unavoidable under the old as it is under the new system ; and for this plain reasor4 . that decency requiring that the same room should have no ther occupants but the man and his wife, there would be no limits to the size of a workhouse affording separate apart ments to every married couple ; and in fact the only difficulty which your petitioners have had to contend with on this point, is the unwillingness of married parties to go into the workhouse together--men and women constantly desir ing to be admitted or discharged one without the other. That the reduction in the rates has been in proportion to the moral good effected ; a diminution of more than one-half having taken place. That, however, it appears to your peti tioners tha the law intended this consideration to be quite secondary to the moral improvement of the poor; and acting upon this principle, your petitioners have found the financial benefit to follow as a matter of course. _ _ _ That, upon the whole, since this introduction of the new Poor-law into the parish of Camberwell, the state of the neighbouring poor has in every sense greatly improved ; hich circu ms ta nce , cou pled with the financial results, induces your petiti one rs t o a pp roac h your Right Honourable House, end to pray th a t y our L or d s hip s w ill not consent to any altera tions affectin g the principles of a measure which, at a greatly lessened cost to the rate-payer, affords on the one hand to the n2cessitous poor such ample protection as under the old de. foctive system they could not be sure of, and tends, on the other, to reform habits of idleness in the able-bodied, and to restore such persons to the condition and character of inde pendence. And your petitioners will ever pray, &c. &e. &e. THE GREAT WESTERN STEAM- SHIP. On Saturday the first experimental excursion of this magni ficent vessel was made on the river with the most complete success. The engineers were engaged during the whole of the week in getting ready her stupendous machinery and paddle-wheels, and the fires were lighted and the steam got up on Thursday and Friday while the vessel was at her moor ings. The working of the engines and the revolutions of the wheels having more than answered the- expectations of the owners, on Saturday moi ning at eleven o'clock she got under weigh, and started from Black wall on her first steam trip. The greatest interest was excited on the river, and the shores on both sides were crowded with spectators, who, when the wheels got fairly into motion, cheered loudly. Our readers have only to fancy a large man-of-war of 80 guns, without her usual warlike appearance, moved by the power of steam, and they will form some idea of the size of the " Great Wes tern," the largest vessel propelled by steam which has yet made her appearance on the waters in Europe, her regis tered admeasurement being 1,604 tons ; length, 234 feet ; breadth from out to out of the paddle-boxes, 58 feet, and with engines and machinery of 450-horse power. She began to steer rather wildly at first, but the river pilot, Mr. Grundy, an able man, soon found out that the steersman was insufficient, and another man being placed at the wheel, she answered her helm as well as any steam ship in her Majesty's service, and soon began to cut through the waters at a spank ing rate. All that could be wished either by her engineers or by the Directors, was fully accomplished. She was accompanied by the Comet, a favourite Gravesend steamer, which was on her way down at the same time. The Comet, which appeared a mere pigmy as compared with tho Great Western, has been always considered a very fast going vessel, but, notwithstanding all the disadvantages attendant on the first trial of new ma chinery and engines, the Great Western beat the Cornet, although the latter vessel was obliged to cheat (to use a river phrase) by getting in shore, which the Great Western was unable to do, owing to her large draught of water, and also by shaving the points. The Comet nut only did not gain upon the Great Western, but as she ran down from Blackwell to Gravesend the latter had increased her distance about half a mile. This is no bad criterion of the speed of the ship which is about to make the bold experiment of steaming across the Atlantic Ocean. On her arrival off Gravesend, the town quay, terrace-hill, and every spot commanding a view of the river was crowded with people, who received the Great Western with loud cheers as she pa'Ssed this favourite watering-place. The e ngines made 19 strokes per minute, which is equal to more than 17 miles per hour. The steam-ship went some times 12 knots, and generally 111- knots per hour, which is equal to 14 statute miles. The Great Western proceeded three miles below Gravesend, and here an opportunity was afforded of ascertaining how she could be turned round. The order being given to turn her, and direct her head towards London, it was accomplished without difficulty, and the pilot expressed his satisfaction in warm terms, and said there was not a long steamer on the Thames which could have done it better. The Great Western reached her moorings at Blackwell shortly before four o'clock, and her re-appear ance was hailed by the assembled multitudes in the same manner as at her departure. A number of engineers, ship builders, and scientific persons accompanied the Great Western on her trial, and all expressed their perfect satisfac tion at the result. On her arrival at Blackwell she was visited by a great number of' noblemen and gentlemen, and among the first who stepped on board to ascertain the success of t h e e xperimental trip was Lord Sandon, M. P. for Liverpool, who went over the vessel, and expressed himself highly pleased at the splendid decorations of the saloon, the beautiful com paintings by E. T. Parris, R. A., and the engines partment and machinery of the ship. The visitors soon began to arrive in such large n umbers, that a clerk w h o was deputed to theirin sert names in a book (which already contains the names of half the Lords and Commoners in Parliament, as well as all the principal merchants) gave up the task, and inserted " the people began to flock to the vessel in shoals, and four men, with as many boo ks, would be unab le to take down their names and addresses." The Great Western, as far as the ornamen tal decorations of her cabins and berths are concerned, is still un fi n i s h e d, and there are more than 100 artificers on board completing the work, who had some difficulty in pursuing their labours in consequence of the number of visitors. The most remarkable thing about the Great Western is her four masts, which, when rigged, will supersede the use of steam when the wind is favourable; and, as they are somewhat lower than the masts of other vessels of similar di mensions, will offer less resistance to the winds when they are adverse. There are four boilers, and the space below is so great, that passages are formed in which persons can walk be tween them without inconvenience, and many availed them selves of the offer made by Captain Hoskins, R.N., the com mander; Mr. Patterson, the builder; and C. Claxton, Esq., R.N., the Managing Director of the Company, to visit the engine-room, in which there is ample space to walk between the boilers, although the heat was insufferable, the novelty of the thing supersding all other considerations. The boilers weigh about 96 tons, and hold 80 tons of water. Notwith standing the large space devoted to the engines, boilers, and machinery of the vessel, the number of passengers' berths, making up 150 beds, besides cabins and sleeping places for officers and crew, there is room on board for 200 tons of cargo. The Great Western will remain in the River for another week, to complete her fittings-up and take in part of her coals, and she will then proceed to her native place, Bristol. She leaves Bristol for New York on the 7th of April, and from the success which attended the first experimental excursion yester day, we anticipate a favourable voyage across the Atlantic. The Williams, a coal brig, with 470 tons of coals, 'is lying alongside the Great Western, and will discharge her cargo into the coal-bankers of the steam-ship to-morrow. She will take in another ship-load, 400 tons, at Bristol. The coal tanks ore so disposed, that as fast as they are emptied during the voyage they will be filled with' sea water, the fuel and water alternately supplying the place of ballast. The Great Western met with one accident. In going down the River a large sailing barge crossed her bows, and to pre vent the barge being run down, in which case three men in her must inevitably have perished, the engines were stopped and reversed, when she ran foul of a ship lying at anchor on her larboard side, and carried away the starboard quarter of the vessel, besides doing other damage. The Great Western sustained no injury. REFORM.—NORTII DEVON.—A meeting of the Reformers of Devon was held at Exeter last Thursday, hav ing for object the establishment of a general union of the Re f-irm interest in Devon. The Western Times, a Liberal and well conducted journal, informs us that several of the most in fluential Reformers of North Devon attended, a fact which proves that the cause of good government is not asleep there. A revival may, perhaps, be anticipated, which will Surprise those good easy men the Tories. (From the Morning Papers of this day, Monday. ) TIMES.-The speculations for the rise in Dutch Stock are evidently suspended, and the price is giving way, but there seems no disposition at present to reverse the operation, which would be the signal, in the present state of the mar ket, of a general alarm among the holders. The leaders still cling to the hope that the political question is about to be set tled, and that Holland will be relieved from that portion of the debt which is assigned to Belgium. An opinion was ad venced yesterday, that were the political differences now ac tually disposed of, another ground of dispute would be created in the adjustment of the debt itself, and this is borne out by the letters received from Paris this morning, which anticipate that Belgium will either repudiate the debt altogether, or allow it to take effect only from the period of the final settlement of the differences, instead of from the separation of the two countries. Everything relating to this question is in the most perplexed and uncertain state. There is an obvious falling off in the demand for American Securities, and Mr. Jaudon finds that the bills and bonds of the United States Bank do not go off near so readily as at first. Indeed, there are circumstances connected with the concoction of this latter description of paper which have in duced many of our capitalists, independently of the mere credit they are entitled to, to refuse to have anything to do with them. They are made payable, it seems, at dates vary ing from 6 to 18 months, not by any individual specially named in the instrument, but merely at " the agency of the United States Bank in London." They have no other as signed place of payment on the face of them, either in Europe or America. Now, it is by no means a well-ascertained fact _wbc';:e this agency is placed, for none has been "Officially an nounced, since it was removed from the mercantile house which held it before the appointment of Mr. Jaudon to his mission ; and supposing this agency to be suddenly broken up, which may be the case at any time, and war to arise between the two countries, the monied people naturally ask how these bills are to be paid, and where they are to present them for pay ment. Nor do they fail to remark what a prodigious power is placed in the hands of one man, in the appointment of Mr. Jaudon, who literally has at his command nearly all the re sources of this Bank. It is not that any one expresses a doubt of his honour and integrity, but that such an extensive trust, so entirely without control, and in a foreign country, is con trary to all the sound principles on which such business is regulated. There are some statements in circulation which can only have come from himself, that a deadly quarrel has sprung up between the Bank of England and Riddle's Bank, from the refusal to open an account with him on his first arrival in Eng land. We thought the Bank wrong on that occasion, and that it was a piece of petty hostility which never should have entered into the conduct of a great institution ; but the quarrel can have no great terrors for them. The only point in which the Bank are vulnerable is the ill-judged traffic in gold to New York, the mere profit of which, leaving all other con siderations out of the question, is now held - to be a very doubtful matter. MORNING POST.—A report has found its way into the Newspapers of a hostile letter having been re ceived by the Bank of England from Mr. Biddle, the principal manager of the the United States Bank at Philadelphia, and, as it is given with considerable eir cumstantiality, there has been a disposition to attach some credit to the statement, the cause assigned for the alleged dis pleasure of Mr. Biddle being, the refusal of the Bank autho rities to discount the Bills of the agent here, Mr. Jaudon. We have made inquiry into this matter, feeling that the rumour, if unfounded, could not be too speedily contradicted, and we are glad to learn that it is so. The information we have re ceived upon the subject is, that there is not a word of truth in it. The Dutch and Columbian Bonds commanded the chief at tention of the dealers in the foreign house. Active negotia tions are supposed to be still in progress with a view to the adjustment of the differences of the Dutch and Belgian Go vernnawits, but a favourable result does not seem to be quite so confidently anticipated as was th© case in the first instance, and the Bonds have become a little heavy in consequence. We have no opinion to offer as to the probable issue of the diplomatic conferences alluded to, but we see no just ground in the meanwhile for disputing the solidity of the public secu rities of the Dutch Government. The dividends have here tofore been paid with the utmost punctuality, and although the robberies which have been committed on British capitalists by Spain and Portugal, and the Republics of South America, may well render them suspicious, we will venture to say no similar breach of faith will be practised towards them by Hol land. The Dutch are proverbial for the scrupulous exactness with which they fulfil their financial obligations. MORNING CurioNiom—lt appears that our exposition of the existing state of affairs between the Bank of England and the Bank of the United States has caused quite a panic among the Directors of the first-named establishment, and the greatest curiosity is evinced to find out how we obtained our informa tion, whsle some, we understand, accuse Mr. Jaudon of making the communication. We obtained a hint in a very unusual manner; but our statement was the result of inquiry. Mr. Jaudon, however, had nothing whatever to do with the busi ness, but, on the contrary, positively refused to enlighten us upon the subjoct, while, moreover, he did all he could to pre vent us saying anything about the affair. The curious Direc tors are quite upon a wrong tack. In speaking of the dis courtesy of the Directors of the Bank of England to Mr. Jaudon, we of course allude to them eollectively—to their acts as a body, and not them individually, as some persons suppose ; for we are well aware that many were personally ac quainted, and on intimate terms with that gentleman. There are unquestionably some worthy and most intelligent men amongst the Directors, but they are in the minority, and therefore compelled to participate in the disapprobation which is shown to the measures and proCeedings of the majority. MORNING HERALD.—An impresion has further obtained amongst our men of business that, in the course of the next two months we shall experience a considerable pressure for money. This feeling has been created by the knowledge that bullion to the amount of nearly three millions has been ex ported to the United States, and the circumstances of the continental exchanges having shown symptoms of turning against this country ;tit is, therefore, anticipated that the Bank of England, after the opening, will put the screw upon the Money Market, by restricting their issues. The impression which prevails amongst the mercantile classes at present, has had but very little influence upon the Stock Exchange. The statement which appeared in the Morning Chronicle of this day, that the Bank of England had received,a letter from the Bank of the United States, " containing," as it is ridicu lously observed, " a decided declaration of was between the Bank of England the Bank of the United States," has created rio small degree of amusement amongst our monetary interests of the " higher order," as well as amongst the minor fry of Jews and Gentiles, who kick their heels all day in Capel-court, the Rotunda, and other places of re tort, for those who live by the doctrine of chances. This declaration of war on the part of the United States Bank, or rather of Mr. Biddle against the Bank of England, for so we must construe the meaning of this paragraph, is said to be founded on the ill-treatment that Mr. Jaudon has received at the hands of the Bank of England. It is not our purpose to criticise the ridiculous twaddle and argument which follows this sapient announcement, which would disgrace any first form tyro at Merchant Tailors' School, and, after all, is but launched by some overweening member of one of the late suspended firms, as a gratsfuiphillippic against the Bank, through the medium of that journal, but it is our duty to do away with false impressions. Mr. Jaudon was courteously received in the bank parlour, though his over tures on the part of the bank of the United States were re jected, as they were at Messrs. Jones Lloyd's, though probably they might not have been at Messrs. Smith's, if the repulse in Bartholemew-lane had not deterred Mr. Jaudon, who had a difficult and most delicate task on hand, from making the ap plication. The bank, however, did permit Mr. Jaudon to open a deposit account, and the firm of Joseph Denison and Co. granted to him a deposit and drawing account ; but we believe the ultra schemes of Mr. Biddle, however clever a financier he may prove for the interests of the United States Bank, were not adopted by the Governor and Company of the Bank of England, because they were incompatible with the terms of their charter, which they have found out that they have stretched to its extremity. We believe that no such silly correspondence as that referred to has existed between the two pretended national banks, however jealous each may be of the other's movements in their respective countries. The weather for the last few days has heen of the most wintry kind—thc ground is again partially covered with snow.—Gateshead Observer. A NOBLE AND REV. PLURALIST.--TIIC fol lowing is an extract from the evidence given at the late trial of the Rev. Earl of Guildford v. Boys :—Mr. Knocker, late Solicitor to the plaintiff, proved the execution of the lease. He had never known the Down by any other name than Malmains till this dispute arose. Cross-examined by Mr. Law.—Has there not been an entire change of tenantry on the estate ? Witness—An entire change. Mr. Law—Yes ; all gone but one ? Certainly not. Arc there any other left but Mr. Boys ? Oh, yes. Do you mean to say my Lord did not get rid of nearly all his tenants soon after coming to the estate ? Some of them. He brought a surveyor out of another country, did he not? A surveyor came. And the tenants went ? Some of them. Do you happen to know that Lord Guildford and Mr. Boys had a dispute about game prior to this ? Yes. His Lordship is in the Church ? He is reputed to be. Don't you know that he holds a large living ? No. You never heard him preach ? Never. Mr. Law—That I believe.— (A laugh.)—Kent Herald. An address to tile Queen is now in course of signa ture in this neighbourhood, by the wives and daughters of clergy of the Established Church, entreating her Majesty's compassion for the negro apprentices in our colonies, and especially claiming her commiseration for the suffering females and infants of that oppressed race.—Doncaster Gazette. movements against Canada. The to be in a state of the greatest cxcitemmit, extensive pre— parations are said to be making along the line for 'immediate hostilities. We have from time to time given accounts of the assembling of bodics of men at various points on the lakes and the river St. Lawrence, whose object cou!d not be mistaken. The state of affairs on the frontier is now assuming a more serious aspect than ever before. We shall not be. surprised to learn in a few days that the hostile parties havv.crossed into Canada at several points. The movements in the neigh bourhood of Detroit may have been intended to dr.aw off the British forces from the lower province and Kingston, so as to leave the whole shore of Lake Ontario open to .attack. Quiet prevailed at Montreal on the 23d, but apprchensioas tx isted that Kingston, or some other town on the lake, was .coon to be attacked. (From the Albany Argus.) Ogdensburgh, Feb. 22, 10'at night. " At Morristown we received information on which we can rely that the gathering of the people was at French Creek, Jefferson County, exclusively. We also learn that the number collected there was 4,000 or 5,000, and that they began to move at daylight that morning for Kingston. " At Prescott and Brockville there are several hundred men under arms night and day, expecting an attack." (From the Onondaga Standard, Extra, Feb. 23.) " Watertown, Feb. 22, 5 o'clock, p m. " The people of Kingston are in a high state of excitement and anxiety. They anticipate an attack, and have barricaded their streets—raised ice breastworks in front of the town, on the river—keep up a vigilant police, and what force they emit muster under arms. Some little apprehension is felt by the frontier towns that an attack may be made by the Loyalists, in case the Patriots should hazard a battle, and be driven back. Orders are, therefore, being issued, calling out the militia. The prospect is, there will be stirring times here for a few days. P. S . Since the above was received we have seen and conversed with several gentlemen from Oswego, who left that place this morning after the arrival of the Sacketts-har hour mail, which brought the gratifying news that the patriots had left Hickory Island (ominous name), and taken possession of Brockville, Upper Canada, a large village on the St. Lawrence river, opposite Morristown, St. Lawrence count), twelve miles above o,:densburgh, liberating- all the patriot prisoners in the Brockviile gaol, and taking a large quantity of flour and other provision.% &e. ; and that it was the inten tion of the patriots to• proceed towards Kingston, taking pos session of Preseot and villages on their onward march." "Buffalo Star Office, Saturday, Feb. 24, 6i p.m. " ISIPORTANT FROM CANADA. " A gentleman is not , / in our office who came directly from Upper Canada, and states that he there saw as many as 15 or 16 wounded British soldiers, who arrived in two sleighs direct from Malden. The battle was said to have been fought on Sunday evening, and 250 British soldiers were killed. He left Hamilton about nine o'clock last evening. " It was said that Fort Malden and all the military stores bad fallen into the hands of the Patriots. " A report is also in town, corroborated by the same gentle man, that Van Rensselaer has obtained complete possession of Kingston." We take the following from the Buffalo Commercial Ad vertiser of the 26th : " ATTEMPTED INVASION OF UPPER CANADA.—' Sad busi.. ness in the Western District' was the heading used by the Star journal a short time since, to announce the rising of the Patriots' near Malden, with which some wag had hoaxed those veracious prints. They might have . kept : the head standing, and placed it with great propriety ,over their flaming annunciation of the crossing of the - Patriots' into Canada on the night of the 16th, for one story is as true as the other. " By information which we have received from Detroit down to the 20th we learn that at that date . 11 was quiet. The Patriots,' so far from being concentrated, and about to cross into Canada, were scattered along the lak e shore in straggling parties, in an almost shoeless and starving condition. Their situation is truly pitiable. • We understand that Mr. Mackenzie, General Van Rensse laer, and Dr. Duncombe are in or about that city. It is im possible to conceal that something of the highest importance, one way or the other, may soon occur in this neighbourhood. The river at this city is now frozen over. We have also a slight covering of snow, which makes tolerable sleighing. In the country there is plenty of snow. The Toledo Gazette of the 13th says :—" We have been informed by a gentleman direct from Detroit, that Captain Davis, of London, Upper Canada, who was severely wounded and taken prisoner on board the schooner Ann at Amsterdam, died in prison at Malden last week. Dr. Theller and Colonel Dodge, who were also wounded, had so far recovered that they were removed to Toronto gaol last week." Adams (Jeff:l-son county), Feb. 19, 1838. The State Arsenal at Watertown was broken open last evening, and some 500 muskets taken out. Fairbank, who is the keeper, has offered a reward of 250 dollars for the re covery of them. FROM LOWER CANADA. The Montreal _Herald of the 20th insinuates that Grand Brule is in an unquiet state, and that the French Canadian population are not the least to be depended upon in their loyal professions. This Paper says, " The mildest punishment tho rebels in prison should be visited with is, transportation to the far east.'" There are estimated to be in the prisons about four hundred. DUEL in WASHINGTON—DEATH of Mr. CILLEY. 'Washington, Feb. 24, Saturd'y Night. A melancholy affair has taken place among the great men of the nation. Cilley, of Maine, has been killed in a duel to day by Graves, of Kentucky. It appears that Colonel Webb, of the Courier, challenged Cilley for what he had said of him io the house, and Graves carried the challenge. Cilley re fused to fight such a "blackguard," as he called him, and was challenged thereupon by Graves. according to the laws of duelling, which challenge he accepted. They fought with rifles, agreeably to the request of Cilley, I believe, first three times without injury : the fourth fire Cilley was shot through the body, the ball dividing the principal artery leading to the heart. He placed his hand upon the part where the ball en tered, exclaiming " I am wounded I" gasped two or three times, and expired. Graves not injured. Great excitement pre vails, as you may suppose. The body of Cilley was brought in, and carried to his lodging between fivd and six this afternoon. (New York Daily Express.) Washington, Feb. 27, Tuesday evening. Yesterday the two Houses of Congress adjourned as a tes timony of regard to the memory of the deceased, and to-day in a body they have attended the funeral ; and fur thirty days, of course, they have resolved to wear crape upon the left arm in respect to the memory of the dead. All, there fore, that could be done to save the sting of deatli, and to wipe out the reporach of the manner of the death, has been done. TEXAS.—NEW ORLEANS, FEB. 20.—8 y the brig Opeloußas, Baptain Collins, arrived last evening from Vera Cruz, we have information of the sailing of a Mexican fleet, for the purpose of blockading the ports of Texas. The fleet con sisted of one ship, one brig, and two schooners ; they left Vera Cruz on the 6th instant. By this arrival and that of the schooner Creole, from Tampico, upwards of 45,000 dollars in specie has been received. Maxie°. —The schooner Creole, Captain Pormer, arrived yesterday, brings us recent dates from Tampico and other Mexican cities. With regard to political movements at Tam pico, everything remained tranquil; but considerable anima tion existed in commerce in spite of the small quantity of merchandise in this place, and foreign goods were in great de mand. The Creole brings 42,000 dollars in specie, consigned partly to commercial houses, and pertly to indiviivals in this city. LATE FROM FLORIDA.—CLARKSVILLE (E, F.), FEB. 19. A letter was received at this place last evening from an officer of the army at Indian River, stating that there was a report there that General Jessup had captured three or four hundred Indians, men, women, and children. NEW YORK MONEY MARKET, Marten 4: The intention of our city banks to esume specie payments by the 10th of May will strike the attention of the public. It will be recollected that our State law is imperative upon this subject, and that there is no prospect of obtaining another Act of suspension. The fact is clear also that there is now little or no demand in this market for specie, Treasury notes sup plying all the demands at the Custom House, and the rates of Foreign Exchange being decidedly in our favour. Under these circumstances, it will not be at all difficult to resume upon the bills out, but how it will be with deposits remains tcr be seen. The probable condition of the United States Treasury be comes a matter of considerable importance in the present con dition of things. There is but little doubt, looking at the im ports of New York, that the Secretary of the Treasury has over estimated the receipts from imports, as well as the receipts from the public lands. It is also pretty clear that the expen ditures of the Government are under estimated in his report, in that of the prolongation of the expenses of the Florida war. The Secretary of the Treasury, it is therefore natural to con clude, will be under the necessity of raising the wind by issu ing his full 10,000,000 of Treasury notes, which being a cur rency under par here, and yet the currency of the Government, V% PI be freely used to pay all government dues, so that they :ill come back on the Treasury soon after they are issued. The Treasury thus being under the necessity of resorting to all the means of credit Congress has given to it, cannot Worry the banks much under its Sub Treasury exactions..
